The relationship between body fat mass and fat-free mass.

Journal of the American College of Nutrition, 1991
It has been suggested that there is a curvilinear relationship between lean body or fat-free mass and body fat mass. In order to confirm this relationship, body composition was measured by determining body density and total body water using deuterium-labeled water in subjects varying widely in body fat mass. There were 29 males and 75 females with body

Fat mass to fat-free mass ratio reference values from NHANES III using bioelectrical impedance analysis.

Clinical Nutrition, 2017
BACKGROUND & AIM Low fat-free mass (FFM) or high fat mass (FM) are abnormal body composition phenotypes associated with morbidity. These conditions in combination lead to worse health outcomes, and can be identified by a high FM/FFM ratio.

Prediction of resting energy expenditure from fat-free mass and fat mass

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1992
On the basis of literature values, the relationship between fat-free mass (FFM), fat mass (FM), and resting energy expenditure [REE (kJ/24 h)] was determined for 213 adults (86 males, 127 females). The objectives were to develop a mathematical model to predict REE based on body composition and to evaluate the contribution of FFM and FM to REE.

Left ventricular mass correlates with fat-free mass but not fat mass in adults

Journal of Hypertension, 1999
Left ventricular mass is associated with body size, obesity and blood pressure. Echocardiography is routinely used to estimate this parameter, which is usually indexed to body surface area to allow comparisons to be made between individuals and groups of different body size.

Dynamic assessment of fat-free mass during catabolism and recovery

Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition and Metabolic Care, 2000
Catabolism of fat-free mass affects both the quality of life and survival of patients. Because of variations in fluid status during acute illness, changes in body weight are difficult to evaluate and interpret during treatment. Nutritional assessment should therefore evaluate fat-free and fat mass changes during metabolic stress and catabolism. We have

Fat-free mass estimation by the two-electrode impedance method

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1990
In 202 healthy subjects (81 men, 121 women) aged 12-71 y, impedance (Z) was measured with a two-electrode analyzer. Fat-free mass was assessed by hydrodensitometry (FFMd). This population was randomized into two groups for cross-validation. In group 1 the relationship between ht2/Z at 1 MHz and FFMd was highly significant (r = 0.85, P less than 0.001).

Fat-Free Mass Depletion and Inflammation in Patients with Bronchiectasis

Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, 2012
Fat-free mass depletion has been related to increased inflammatory activity and to increased morbidity and mortality in chronic respiratory diseases. The aims of our study were to determine the nutritional status and serum levels of adipocytokines and inflammatory cytokines in patients with bronchiectasis of any etiology and their relation with ...

Fat‐Free Mass Qualitative Assessment with Bioelectric Impedance Analysis (BIA)

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1999
Abstract: Body composition studies, when based on two‐compartment volumetric estimates, can hardly assess nutritional states. Phase‐sensitive impedance analysis can be used to reflect directly the proportions between intra‐ and extracellular spaces (ECM/BCM), which is one of the most sensitive indexes of malnutrition.

Adjusting for Fat-Free Mass in Metabolic Studies

Hormone and Metabolic Research, 2002
in a recent publication, Eriksson et al. [1] explored the relationship between size at birth and resting metabolic rate and body composition in adulthood in a cohort of over 300 men and women. They reported an unexpected finding that people of both sexes who had a low birth weight also had a higher metabolic activity per unit muscle tissue.
